Ava ran up to me this morning and said, "Mommy! I want to see the amarillo girl and the brown sea horse."
What she wanted to see was a girl (wearing a yellow shirt) on Yo Gabba Gabba who made her donkey smile by feeding it hay.
Don't you just love kids translations?

Excuses, excuses...
So today we were taking a lovely, family walk in the rain. Suddenly, Ava started lagging behind. When we asked her to pick it up, she said "My stomach hurts."
The other night, when we were trying to get her to eat dinner she said, "I can't eat. My leg hurts."
Tricky, tricky. Do you think we have a fibber on our hands?

I had to share these doozies with you!
So tonight while hanging out with me and Sergio, Ava said a million funny things. Here are just a few delicious morsels:
- Right after going doodoo in the toilet Ava immediately looked down to examine her treasure. The doodoo was in three pieces - big, medium and small. Ava declared, "It's a daddy, mommy and baby." As the big piece of doodoo sunk down the toilet Ava said, "Look! The daddy is going to work. And, the mommy is staying home to nurse the baby."
- Later as Sergio was messing up the words to one of her favorite songs (California Gurls by Katy Perry) Ava said, "Daddy stop! You're stressing me out." (I'm not kidding.)
- Lastly, as she was running around the house in her pre-bed mania, she hurt her foot. She limped over to me in pain. As I was rubbing her foot she whimpered, "Mommy, I need a walking stick." So Serg found one for her and tailored it to her height. She walked around with it for the rest of the night.
I am in LOVE with this girl!

Wait....come back!
Last year Ava did NOT like sand or the beach. This year, however, it's a new discovery. She loves it all...except the water. Here she runs and runs and runs from a tiny wave.
What you do to me...
One of the best parts about kids is being able to watch them when they're unaware. They do the most amazing, precious things. About halfway through this clip, Ava catches her reflection and sings to herself in her new ballet outfit. SO STINKING CUTE.
Bossy McBosser!
Does anyone think that Ava may be an assertive child? Perhaps the one that will tell the other kids what to do. Maybe, maybe not. You be the judge...
When I hear music, it makes me dance
Here's a typical night in the Buonsanti household. Music, dogs in your face, dancing. Just the basics. The best part of this clip is that Ava knows the words to the 80's song, "When I hear music".
Holding...or trying...to hold the puppy
Our neighbors down the street have 6 puppies. Ava loves them all. Here's her attempt at holding one. I think she thinks it's too squirmy.
She's "too tired"!
Like a typical celebrity, Ava is tired of the paparazzi shots. Here's one of her "excuses" so she doesn't get filmed. Excuse the darkness, it's at night.

Foiled by a bug!
After a strenuous, painstaking climb to the top, Ava was greeted by a small visitor at the top of the slide.
